Congratulations to Tigchamp & his
1992 MITSUBISHI GTO TT
Tigchamp's Garage Link (http://www.3sgto.org/garage_vehicle.php?do=view_vehicle&id=428)
When I bought this car it was fresh of the ship from Japan & apart from a service and a clean was how it arrived, when I got it home I gave it a good wash & a decent polish and was amazed at how well it came up, so the next day I took it back to show the dealer and his jaw nearly dropped onto the floor, at which point the young lad said I keep telling him he should buy decent polish. lol
I very nearly bought a Supra twin turbo of him instead for twice the price of the GTO but he said in all honesty that the GTO was a better car & that you will spend a lot of time just spinning up the rear wheels of the Supra, & besides which the Missus prefered the GTO anyway so I bought the GTO.
At the moment it is going through the third set of mods in the time that I have owned it.
At first I fitted a Apexi AVCR and Apexi Neo and wound up the 9b's to 1.2 bar getting 335bhp.
Then I bought the 3SX non MHI TD05 kit and AEM EMS which at 1bar was acheiving 480bhp this was done with waste gate that were partialy open all the time due to a fitting error, when the Earl Aquamist W/I stopped working without my knowledge I suffered severe knock resulting in a brken piston land and two trashed turbos as it passed through them.
So on to build three which is a fully forged engine with a breif description below, more details can be found in my build thread listed in my Sig.
Gen 1 GTO TT, gen 3 rear bumper & side skirts, dual tone leather interior
Fully forged 3.0lt twin TD05 20G's
AEM EMS, AEM W/I, AEM 8 channel CDI, AEM Coil on plugs
Dejon SMIC's custom made IC pipes
19" wheels, coil over suspension, 8 pot 380mm front brakes
